Well, considering they are going by the I-130 date now even for the K3 filers....I will say no updates here since 08/07/08 on my I-130. I am sick and tired of no touches and no updates! I think VSC has a bad set-up!

Go crazy when I can feel that they can have good time with their family in festivals but I am not, actually we are not.....God, please help us all.....

Just received email approval. I don't have fast enough internet connection to check the google spreadsheet to see how many others have been approved recently, but I am one of those who went from vermont to california SC last month. It took them 5-6 weeks from x-ing it to approving it. I thought it was going to be a giftless xmas, but I am wrong. Keep up hope to all that haven't yet received.

I just got my approval in the mail today. Hang in there for those that are still waiting... I never received a touch that I know of. I just got transferred to CA so I guess that sped it up. I signed up for emails on the govt site and I never received an email at all... weird...

I'm a USC married to a french man who has been living in Canada for about 20 years.

March of 2005 -Met each other by chance in in Niagara Falls

April of 2005- after a ton of emails, arranged to meet in Montreal, now it's really getting exciting

May of 2005- tons of emails, he comes to visit Kentucky- we are so in love

In between visits to Toronto and KY, we go to Honduras, Montreal, Vancouver for vacations.

Sept 1, 2007 -Back and forth visits in between, IM and Skype, now we take the plunge and get married. We are so happy and my family and friends love him as much as I do!

March 25, 2008- Mailed out the I-130... finally!!!

April 4, 2008- Received the NOA1!!!

Sept. 2008 We went to Paris and the south of France (our 1st anniversary spent here) to visit my new family- with a quick peek at Spain. I love his mom and his son!

Just received a notice that we are moved to the CSC! I hear that is very good news! The date on the letter is Nov. 5.

Dec 16- Received our I-797C, Notice of Action Approval Notice with a Notice Date of Dec. 5 - super excited!

Called and told about change of address (in Canada) for beneficiary 12-22-08

Jan 11 2009 -Receipt of AOS Fee payment.

Feb 5- emailed DS-3032 and mailed the hard copy.

Feb 11- received confirmation email for DS-3032

March 29- 2009 Online payment of IV fee

Jan 11, 2010- husband spoke with NVC- still haven't received DS-230... she said since we paid online that we won't receive a package- just download forms- she sent him link to instructions via email.
